I am thinking it might be something with either the install, or the H/W of the phone (with this v6 install). As i have been running on my touch pro for 12 hours, and it's still proper time. Battery i can't say yet, since i just started using this, as it's only working great on my 1gig stick i found, my 8gig stick it barely runs for SOME reason (checked integrity of my stick yesterday before wiping, formmating and reinstalling from scratch and it was STILL bugging, less frequent "Waiting,force close" boxes, but still freq,every 10-20seconds average ,and also waiting a good 15 seconds every app i try doing before it starts.)

but runs like a champ on my 1gig stick (440mb Fat, 520 ext2, and 18swp) so i'm keeping that, and squeeze my 8gig behind battery slide panel (closes JUST enough)

Sorry to hear your experiencing issues on yours. I was so frustrated when i had issues until i found a 1gig (WISH i had a 2), but my 8gig, this stuff FOR SURE doesn't like running right on my phone, maybe for some WEIRD reason it just doesn't like working with the fat32 partition having so much (7gig's around, 600mb ext2, 20mb swp), but stick is fine, and 1gig is working great so far, battery level i am testing today while at work for getting an average drop/hour, programs load quick.

Btw- Neocore got me around 17fps (seemed faster to me though. Some part's were fluid.) this is with no overclocking though, and using data.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] dengi_it:
Testing this build on a Blackstone without overclock and it stops during the installation with "kernel panic, not syncing - rebooting in 7 seconds"

1. my device is: Blackstone

2. I'm using kernel: I don't know! Just using your version 6 build!

3. I'm using Ver:

4. the problem is: the installation does not end with the error above

Similar installation procedures with FX05 and X- RED work correctly.

The reason why I was using this version 6 is because on both the above version I have freezes of the device when not using it for some hours!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] djdafreund:
I'm happy to say that since last night around 11pm until now (10pm), no freezes, no reboot's, came out of sleep EVERY TIME without a hiccup. And battery average is close to what's posted on first page. I stopped charging to go to work at about 12pm today, used it constantly the first 2 hours setting things, downloading apps,etc, then texted here and there, and by 10 hours, battery level was at around 18%, which is SOMEWHERE around 12%/hour drop with "good usage" being on continuously the first couple hours, downloading stuff, then texting here and there, 40 minutes of browsing and usage while on lunch hour, and then not much used for the last 5 hours around. So yeah, good bit of usage.

Now, now that i got things all setup (Launcherpro, which i bought today $2.99, so i can have everything the way i like things, and save in case of reinstalling.), tomorrow i will monitor normal usage of not using much other then texting and see what kind of battery time i get with normal usage of just texting here and ther e only mostly (like how i use it with WM) and see more of the standby time average. But DEFINITELY good enough to use 24/7 FINALLY. Got me through a whole day with some left over (of moderate use throughout averaged.)

Thanks for making this!!!! (Whomever involved.) :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] czshf1:
it more stable than froyo v5 and bugless
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kodhyok:
mine's working but slow as snail....i have 2gb card, 1,2 fat32, 400mb ext2 and 200mb swap...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] helicopter88:
No need for swap if you don't edit froyo.user.conf and init

About the slowness,do you have sync running?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kodhyok:
hmm.....if swap is not necessary i gues i can delete it :D

and yes my sync is running but i not connected to any network (offline)

sorry for bad english
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] helicopter88:
You could try disabling sync..

my builds slows down a lot with sync enabled
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kodhyok:
wow...now that i disable sync it work like a charm :D but when i try to install neocore there's error -18 :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mundi2010:
Wifi not working for me

Hello,

my Wifi isn't working it writes immediately "error", when I try to activate it :(

I used the same kernel for XDAndroid and there it was working.

Any Ideas?

1. my device is: Touch Pro

2. I'm using kernel: 20110317_184049

3. I'm using Ver: v6

4. the problem is: Wifi not working
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] poleshuka:
I have same errors, I see in logcat:

E/WifiService(11888): Failed to load Wi-Fi driver.

1. my device is: Blackstone

2. I'm using kernel: 20110317_184049

3. I'm using Ver: v6

4. the problem is: Wifi Error

thanks in advance
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yourboyfrombk:
can some one real quick tell me how to install this i may be doing something wrong.....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kodhyok:
have you already try to reinstall it...it's work on my touch pro...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yourboyfrombk:
how would you re-install????
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] daeinnor:
Run install again at npkinstall folder. WiFi & 3G data works in any of the latest kernels.

Sent from my HTC Touch Pro
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mundi2010:
Reinstalling didn't helped for me.

It seems that the problem was, that I made a "android" folder and puted everything in it. I changed the startup file with the "rel_path" parameter and everything worked fine, expect for Wifi.

Now I putted everything in the root of my SD card and Wifi is working...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] nybom:
Problem to install

The install process seemed to work, allthough it stopped at "rebooting in 7 s"... I resetted it. Now when I start HARET.EXE I get error message "Failed to load file \Storage Card\initrd.gz". What am I doing wrong???

Edit:

Solved it, I think... Copied the startup.txt to root. Thought I already had done that...

Edit2:

Got some kind of "kernel panic", "Unable to mount root"...

Do I need to format the card in any specific way? It is today formatted in FAT16...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
If memory serves me correctly, all neopeek variants require at least two partitions; one FAT32 and one EXT2 both set as the primary partition.

NOTE I would not attempt this with a microSD card smaller than 1GB​

You can use partition wizard (free for home/basic use) to do this or anything similar but I would not be able to confirm that it would work. Once you have the two partitions set up, you will need to extract the contents of the ZIP to the root of the FAT32 partition and follow the instructions in the first post.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yourboyfrombk:
i cant install period i followed the steps from the 1st page an all im getting is reboots i gotta touch pro an i have the other frx06 build on a sd i just wanna see which build i like best....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Do you have two partitions as mentioned in my previous post? If you don't have another microSD card, you'll need to backup what's on your microSD and do as mentioned earlier.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
how big does the ext partition need to be? i assume the that android is installed to the ext partition. i know any size is do-able, but whats the recommended full size? 2gb? 4gb? how much is enough for normal use?

Got an 8gb card. No problems partitioning it. Will play around and do a 4/4 partition.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Don't think there are any specific and official percentages posted anywhere. Just as long as you don't go over the amount you are using for each partition. Say for example, you wanted to install tons of apps and you only have the ext2 partition set at 2GB, once you've met that cap, it's "game over" :D

Keeping in mind, there is a system requirement (no idea what it is). So I suspect that a very slight percentage of the ext2 partition will be used/reserved by the system. As for the FAT32 partition, I suspect that will be used to boot into Android. Please don't quote me on that as my logic tells me this may only be part of the answer... :D

A 50/50 split on a 8GB microSD is always nice to play around with, probably more than you will ever need and not bad if you want to "test"/check out Android for yourself. To my knowledge, this was never intended to run on a winmo native device. At least, I am almost 100% positive the makers of the OS didn't have near what we have in mind for it! ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
so i assume the ext2 partition mimics the partition on an android rom. *ie, if a phone has 512mb/1gb rom, and then the rest is storage card space*

2/4gb should be plenty.

and yeah they had no idea, but in a way they did. its the greatness of the openness of android. it was sort of designed to run on anything, and is a great starting point for any sort of mobile device (phones, ereaders, tablets).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
got it up and running. split the card 50/50 (about 3.75gb per partition)

i go to the android market, and every app tells me theres not enough space to install this. (tried on skype and angry birds) both apps tell me theres not enough room.

do i need to sideload apps? is there a setting im missing somewhere?

edit: it might be what we were talking about before with the physical limit. Ive never seen an android phone without external storage. so maybe the os actually has a 2-4gb cap. (i can only think of phones with a 1gb rom, but there might be one or two with 2gb)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Sounds good to me! :) ;) but again, just be mindful of the fact that you are in fact managing two partitions on the microSD, instead of one. (I think) The main difference is that the EXT2 partition can not be modified as easily as the FAT32 partition can.

Again, I'm not 100% on the specifics but I know just enough to be dangerous... :D

I do suppose if you wanted to do some reading up on this, you could check out the neopeek site for most of the neopeek variants, like this one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
you should be able to extend and shrink the ext2 partition using gparted in linux. ill boot it up later and try.

still have the problem of not being able to install apps. it tells me theres not enough space, yet phone and sd info says i got like 3.xxgb free.

is there a way to have the market install the apps on the storage card?

im about to sideload a few apps and see if they install.

edit: sideloading of apps works just fine. 3rd party market apps install apps as well.

besides the occasional hanging, this build seems to work pretty well.

sidenote: anyone know how to make the touch a bit better? i think its the whole difference between resistive and capacitive screens. like when you tried to hold down on the screen, the screen thinks youre moving it slightly. although better than previous builds ive tried, its still slightly off.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] helicopter88:
Could you try reducing ext2 partition to something like 700 mb - 1gb?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
So is there an upper limit to the ext2 partition? Why is it limited? What is that limit!?!

Thanks!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
apparently so.

formatted ext2 partition, and started over after resizing to 1024mb.

market now does not give the "out of storage" error.

however i still find the touch is very off. iirc there was some sensitivity setting that i used back on xdandroid donut that made the touch screen much more usable. (i find the on screen keyboard completely unusable.)

Ive used ts-calibration files from here, neopeek, and my own i still had from that old xdandroid 1.6 install i had.

the touch jerks all over the place, like touching two points on a resistive screen. ill go to touch the letter "t" on the keyboard, and i can see "y" and "r" quickly be selected before settling on "t". its not my fingers, because over the years i have adapted very well to using windows mobile with my thumbs and no stylus.

searching for any sort of problem with touch is very difficult thanks to these msm builds running on a TOUCH pro, TOUCH diamond, and TOUCH hd.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Have you tried generating a new one with this build? Sounds like you've tried your own, but it was ancient... Try to generate a new one, see if it helps.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
How do i generate a new one? The ones from here and neopeek were downloaded. And the old 1.6 had the touch calibration screen when you first started up android for the first time.

Ive had a ts-calibration file there already, is this text-based calibration screen still there if i dont include the file?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Basically, you'll need to use an "old" kernel package. Like say from 4.dec (hint hint). After you get that file, replace the "old" kernel package for the latest, not exactly greatest :p and bada bing, bada-boom! :D

@Arrrghhh

Me thinks we could reallllllllly use that calibration fix right about now... :p ;) No rush though... :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] A2Z:
Great piece of work , worked instantly.

Is there any skin or launcher hidden somewhere? I am trying to get the Sense looks/ interface onto it , any hints? ..

Thanks a lot !
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
ill try that out.

and yeah, ive noticed the best performance out of the kernel from the end of feb.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] poleshuka:
does this rom has swap partition support, cause we create it by neopeek wizard

?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Unfortunately, this isn't a ROM. Nor is there a way to flash a zip file to your phone; at least I am not aware of a way to do this. Also, swap doesn't exactly help us non-android native device users that run this build off their microSD... :D

Was there another question in mind or have I totally misunderstood your question, my friend? :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hartleyshc:
So it seems my touch is fine.

I figured this out by reading one off handed comment from a user complaining that they have to press too hard for android.

The whole time I was under the assumption that my sensitivity was too HIGH. If I touch the screen normally, I can see the touch being registered all over the place.

It seems if I press the screen hard, the touch registers in the center of where Im actually touching.

So as long as I touch my phone like a 6 year old with a brand new Nintendo DS, the touch is registered correctly. I can even use the only screen keyboard perfectly, as long as I use a little force.

So still the question remains, is it possible for us to adjust the sensitivity? Instead of turning it down, it seems I actually want to turn it up.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
I believe you will have to "muck around" with some of the internals to get it to the right setting for you. If there does exist an app that does this for you, I am unaware of anyone reporting that it works for our devices much less this build.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] polpot:
Hi all.

First thanks to all in these forums. If not all, then most of my questions about WMxx has been answered here. Thanks to all the chefs for cooking ROMS and thanks to all you fiddlers out there making our software much more usable.

I have the HTC HD2 (Leo) and i´m using GoogleMaps a lot. At the same time i have a lot of software installed, taking up quite a lot of space on internal storage - resulting in low memory warnings from time to time.

Moved email attachments to storage card, now there´s only those annoying 20-something MB of cache from GoogleMaps.

This problem has been presented lots of times, but no answer has been given, so i looked in to it and found a solution.

I modified two files in the app.

The two files GoogleMaps.exe and gmm_setup.dll in "program files\GoogleMaps" needs to be modified as follows:

Search and replace (using a hexeditor):

"cache\cache-GLM.dat" with "\Storage Card\c.dat"

and

"cache\index-GLM.dat" with "\Storage Card\i.dat"

PLEASE use the exact names!

Move the two files cache-GLM.dat and index-GLM.dat from "Application Data\GoogleMaps\Cache" to the storage card (root). Rename them to c.dat and i.dat respectively.

Delete the cache folder in application data\GoogleMaps (leave the "application data\GoogleMaps" folder intact).

You are now good to go, enjoy.

For the lazy ones, i will upload the two modified files as a RAR-file. The files are version 4.1.1, latest version of GoogleMaps for WM. Extract and replace the ones in "Program Files\GoogleMaps"

There are now three files:

GM_EXE_DLL_InternalStorageGMFoldert.rar:

Puts the large cache in Internal Storage under subfolder GM (please create this folder yourself) and the index in appdata\GoogleMaps\Cache (Please create the cache folder again).

GM_EXE_DLL_StorageCardGMFolder.rar:

Puts the large cache in Storage Card under subfolder GM (please create this folder yourself) and the index in appdata\GoogleMaps\Cache (Please create the cache folder again).

GM_EXE_DLL_StorageCardRoot.rar:

Simply does what the original did, puts the two files in Storage Card, root.

For best result, start GoogleMaps, go to settings and clear image/map cache and restart, it will rebuilt the cache. Let me know of any errors, i have tested Storage Card with and without GM folder, but NOT Internal Storage.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] teti77:
YES!

That's what I'm talking about

Many thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] abdelamine:
thnx man........

my diamond has "internal storage" instead of: "storage card"

can you make the modified two files to "internal storage" name

thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joshzzz2001:
thanks, works great! used the cab installation. is there a way to put the cache files in a folder in the storage card. at present, they are stored separately in the storage card root.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] polpot:
Modified to other settings

Yes you can modify the files to whatever you like (including subfolders), BUT that requires the address-pointers, virtual pointers etc. to be correctly set (as you would increase the file size, thereby offsetting the internal pointers within the files).

This is not my strong point. I have been reading a bit on it, but haven't fully understood it yet. Perhaps some friendly soul here at XDA would be of help?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joshzzz2001:
ok, it's no biggie for me anyways. thanks once again for this mod.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] sarantos:
why you just don't install google maps on the storage card and delete the google maps cache in the internal storage (application data/google maps) ? then the cache will also be on the storage card's application data folder. no need to do all this ...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] polpot:
UPDATE

Hi

Well perhaps that works for you, have read multiple threads on several forums describing that it does not work - do you have a working installation that puts the actual cache-files on the storage card permanently?

Updated the first post regarding subfolder and "Internal Storage".
[Windows Mobile Software Development] sarantos:
It works for me and not only in one device but also on my Touch Pro and Touch HD.

I delete the google maps application data folder, and the shortcut in the Start Menu.

May be, it is this : even if you install google maps in the storage card, the other installation (which is in the ROM - internal memry) remains in the device and when you run google maps, you actually run the old program (installed in the internal memory) which creates the cache in the internal memory.

so - may be - if you delete first the shortcut in the start manu (and the application data folder) , and then install google maps in the srorage card, so the shortcut in the start menu refers to the one installed in the storage card, it may solve your problem.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] tiger2wander:
Great job, man!

I'm just thinking about this issue and got your thread :)

[HD2 General] PAChawaii:
I wonder how you could do this because I cant find an answer how to
[HD2 General] tictac0566:
Download HSPL2.exe, you can easily select different SPL/HSPL versions, including 1.42 versions.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
if your phone is a tmous, then STOP. tmous cannot use spl lower than 2.08.0000

If you are following instructions that say you must have 1.42, thats really old information.

What you trying to achieve? maybe we can help.
[Xoom General] legato89:
Do you plan on sending it in for the free 4G upgrade? I think I will, only because in 2 years when its time for an upgrade and Im trying to sell it, it'll probably fetch a higher price.
[Xoom General] El Daddy:
Yes, I sniped the deal and as of now I have no intentions of using cellular data. Most likely I will send it in to get the 4G modem.

1) Because I may decide I may want it someday.

2) Apparently, there's only a 90 day window after they offer the upgrade to do it. I'd like to get it done in case I decide to sell it.
[Xoom General] lanternca:
The upgrade should start in roughly 90 days, but the window is six month from that date.
[Xoom General] droidtacular:
Has anyone seen exactly where all our Xooms will be need to be shipped for this upgrade? I'm assuming that the address is in the states (or else Motorola is even crazier than we thought), but I was just wondering if anyone had seen which city/state they would all be going to.
[Xoom General] Neo3D:
You can ship it to my house :P
[Xoom General] legato89:
Probably where Motorola Mobility is headquartered in Libertyville Il.
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
I think this it's what's gonna make the sd card work too, if that's the case everyone should send them in.
[Xoom General] arrtoodeetoo:
No. I will not be shipping it back for the 4G upgrade.

As far as I'm concerned, it'll be the $600 WiFi only XOOM that I wanted Moto to release on launch day. I raised my voice on multiple forums on behalf of the large majority who want a WiFi version, giving solid, valid reasons why Moto needed to release the WiFi version at launch or shortly after. I even got responses from a Moto employee on Engadget and from Matt at the official forum, who both said our concerns were 'being heard' by their superiors. Yet we still only have rumors to go on, and the only official news we have about a WiFi version is that Europe will be getting it in Q2. Since Motorola is failing to give us any info (despite at least 15 messages a day on their twitter asking them directly about it), we can only assume this means that Motorola doesn't plan on releasing the WiFi version here until Europe has it. Fail!

So, do I feel bad about getting a $200 discount? No. For one thing, I thought it was legit until I saw the update on Droid-Life. For another thing, they should have released the WiFi version and they probably wouldn't have had people looking for exploits to save money on their $150 markup (probably more since each 3G radio is under $50 for them).

Sorry for the rant.

*Steps off of soap box*

Carry on. :D
